The best ted talk ever
I wish can I come to this platform
Being as a refugee in camps is too hard specially in a country like ethiopia' among the mosquitos 🦟 🪰 🦂🪱 and all kinds of insects
I scapet fom my home country to sudan because of the religious people and now we left sudan came to this place ,
everything is missed up here
Finally we find the UNHCR and registered
And now we are waiting here and fighting against all kinds of diseases 😢
I wish the western countries' politicians could watch this. He could see challenges facing these countries from a distance. It is only time when the elder generations vanish, and when no chance is given to the young productive generations, then do not wonder why some countries are stagnant and complaining of regression in economy. This speech I would recommend to any business which has influence on the government, especially the large ones if they want to boom their output with skilled workers.
Or instead one could do the opposite and make it so that the younger population can procreate more so as to not need to take in more people that may or may not have different values than ours.
